Helping Hispasat to keep Europe’s landmark satellite project moving to enable the continent’s strategic communications autonomy.

• €10.6bn launch of a constellation of 290 satellites
• Helping secure Europe's future in space
• One transformative project

Getting Europe’s €10.6bn space programme, Iris2, off the ground was a complex challenge for every stakeholder and negotiating the legal agreements would challenge us to exceed new boundaries. How could we get all parties to agree with innovative and disruptive technologies? And how could we cap risk (with still uncertain costs) to allow the members of the SpaceRISE consortium to fully commit? To make this project happen took determination, communication and a mix of pragmatism and imagination. But with the groundwork now in place, the outlook is bright – for our client, Hispasat S.A, their partners in the SpaceRISE consortium and, ultimately, for the future security and stability of Europe.
